Chapter 104 Breaking the Mold, Curse
Kardashian floated by, tilting her head slightly as she watched Lin Wei's serious expression. Lin Wei thought to himself, "Knowledge point, transformation."
[Consumed 2 knowledge points]
[Converted to 2 element factors]
"Awesome!" Lin Wei's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but wave his arm excitedly.
Feeling the water element factors that had suddenly appeared in his mind, Lin Wei happily continued casting the line, his movements very skilled.
Kardashian looked bewildered, floated over to Lin Wei, frowned and asked, "Why did you suddenly laugh twice? That was weird."
"Haha, I've thought of something fun." Lin Wei laughed and cast the fishing line again with force.
……
A week later, the weather at sea was somewhat gloomy, and the waves were larger than before. Lin Wei had killed more than ten spiky stonefish. Standing on the deck, covered in blood, but his face was full of excitement, he shouted, "I've stirred up a stonefish nest! I only caught this one, nothing else!"
At this point, he had completely converted the element factors in his brain to 100, and there were still 7 knowledge points left.
"With 100 elemental factors, I can compress my mental energy according to the breathing technique, which means I can become a second-class wizard apprentice. But it seems I can continue to transform. Isn't it said that a third-class wizard apprentice's brain can only hold 100 factors?" Lin Wei stroked his chin, his eyes showing contemplation, as he paced back and forth on the deck.
These past few days, Lin Wei has been fishing for sea creatures while practicing meditation. He discovered that when he reached 100 elemental factors, no matter how he meditated, he couldn't absorb a single more, even if he caught some with a small net. He frowned, trying again and again, until fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Kardashian, do you know about wizarding elemental factors?" Lin Wei stopped what he was doing and turned to ask Kardashian.
"I don't know, but naturally the more the better. Different wizards have different capacities. Once you reach the first ring, the elemental factors can materialize into a solid ring of light, which is also the origin of the first-ring wizard." Kardashian sat on the gunwale with her legs crossed, while helping Lin Wei extract blood from the spiked stone fish she had killed, her fingers gently touching the stone fish.
"Materialize?" Lin Wei muttered to himself, looking down at his palm. "These 100 of them, if added together, would probably only be about the size of a thumb, and they'd break with a single poke. How many would I need to form a ring...?"
"Since the Rubik's Cube says I can continue to transform, then I'll continue to transform." Lin Wei gritted his teeth, suppressing his desire to break through, clenched his fists, and his eyes showed determination. "I am invincible among knights, and I must be the strongest wizard. I must push myself to the limit with every step, only then can I be the most powerful wizard in history."
"Extracting the bloodline of this sea creature was very smooth. In a while, I'll be a first-class ghost too," Kardashian said with a smile, a smug look on her face. "Don't let me leave you behind; we're partners."
"Surpass me? You're dreaming. But what exactly is a first-class ghost?" Lin Wei asked curiously as he leaned closer.
"This is the power system of our Ghost Dimension, similar to a first-ring wizard here, but its combat power is probably not at the level of a wizard. The individual combat power of a wizard is extremely strong in multiple dimensions," Kardashian explained, gesturing with her fingers in the air.
"So fast?" Lin Wei was shocked, his eyes widened and his mouth slightly open.
He's not even a second-class wizarding apprentice yet, while Kardashian is almost a first-class wizard.
"So good luck," Kardashian said, then crawled into the black pebbles to rest.
"Keep converting my gray knowledge! I'm not going to break through for now." Lin Wei calmed himself down for a moment, took a deep breath, and gave the order.
[Consumed 7 knowledge points]
[Converted to 7 element factors]
"As expected, it continued to grow."
Lin Wei stared at the seven small fish that had appeared in his mind, lost in thought, and gently tapped his forehead with his fingers.
"I seem to have broken the rules," Lin Wei said after hesitating for a moment, then shrugged and smiled with relief. "Never mind, let's keep fishing for sea creatures. I want to see just how many elemental factors can fit into the brain of this third-class wizard apprentice." With that, he picked up the fishing line again and stared intently at the sea.
……
Half a month has passed.
The wind at sea grew stronger, and wave after wave crashed against the ship like a herd of wild horses, making loud "bang" sounds, causing the ship to rock violently. Lin Wei stood on the swaying ship, gripping the gunwale tightly, struggling to maintain his balance.
Lin Wei killed nearly twenty stonefish, gaining 47 knowledge points, as well as some other sea creatures. However, apart from the stonefish, the other sea creatures did not provide any knowledge points or drop any items.
"The other sea creatures are probably too weak." Lin Wei frowned, stroked his chin, and began to speculate. "Even the Spiked Stonefish is only at the Weak level. It seems that only sea creatures at the Weak level or above can provide knowledge points."
"I remember the first time we went out to sea, this stonefish easily killed a second-level wizard apprentice. Apart from me, I doubt even a first-level wizard apprentice could kill so many stonefish. It's infuriating to compare yourself to others." Lin Wei shook his head helplessly, muttering to himself.
"The Rubik's Cube, I want to continue solving it," Lin Wei said slowly, his eyes filled with determination.
[Consumed 47 knowledge points]
[Converted to 47 element factors]
In an instant, 47 more tiny points of light appeared in his mind, directly entering the cluster of light points and moving up and down. Although it was slightly crowded, it was very harmonious. Lin Wei closed his eyes, feeling the changes in his mind, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
"It can increase? I already have 154 element factors in my brain, that's outrageous." Lin Wei's eyes widened, his face full of astonishment. "Let me see, just how many will it take to fill it up?"
"I'll go a little further out; this stone fish isn't giving me enough knowledge points." Lin Wei pondered for a moment, then pushed the rudder outwards with both hands, causing the boat to lurch violently and splash up a large amount of water.
These days, he occasionally sees a few small boats, each carrying several wizard apprentices hunting, but he hasn't encountered anyone like him who is alone.
He even encountered small boats from other organizations, not just those from their Turing Tower.
"Teacher, why is this small boat heading out to sea again? The deeper it goes, the stronger the sea creatures it encounters become. Are the people on board courting death?"
Not far away, on a small boat, a third-class wizard apprentice leaned forward, pointed at Lin Wei's boat, and asked the first-class wizard apprentice leading the group with a puzzled look on his face.
"Never mind him. The markings on this ship belong to the Turing Tower, not Molten Core. I'd be happy if he wanted to die. Different wizarding organizations are both allies on the wizarding front and enemies and competitors. Remember that." The first-class wizard apprentice narrowed his eyes, his gaze ruthless, as he reminded him.
